E-book (reader)

I bought today for my aunt DIGMA R60G in Mvideo for only 1990, only she did not have a program at all, she downloaded it at the office. site basic firmware, but how to install if the computer does not see the book? Maybe something else needs to be installed, an explorer or a driver?

Driver. It should also be on the Digma website, as well as instructions.

I handed over the book. No matter how hard they fought, the program could not be installed. We tried to connect to three different computers, the result is one invisible. After charging for 10 hours, it was not fully charged, the indicator continued to flash. The firmware was not installed from the SD card either. Judging by the reviews, many faced such a disaster. It was not possible to replace it with another copy, they took the last one. You can go to Volgograd and look there, I will first ask you to immediately connect it to your computer, if you see it as a USB flash drive, then buy. Or choose another model?

Do we have a topic for tablets?

Lucha, it would be better not to try three different computers, but three different cables. In addition, it is preferable to try no higher than 7 Windows. The driver will not install itself, you need to point the unidentified device to the * inf file from the Windows device manager, since there is no file to start installing the * exe driver. The same goes for android tablets.

Arkady _ru, excuse me, but who did you write to? Maybe you can make a separate Temko "what to do if the computer does not see the new reader (tablet)" and fix it? Just simpler, like what button to press ... I think all those suffering in chorus will say thank you!

[Lucha]

I think the answer was for Lucha and even on the topic.

[Lucha]

Lucha, if available in the vicinity of Yulmart, take from the discount section the Gmini and Digma models. Everything is fixed there (the latest firmware is installed) and it works. But you still need to check.
vatruska, one button for pants and a jacket does not exist. But there are instructions that are always worth reading before doing anything.
If external drives appear when you connect the tablet / book, then everything is in order with the cable.

Arkady_ru my squeak was related to this phrase:

you need to point the unidentified device to the * inf file from the Windows device manager

in which I personally understand all the words separately, but in a practical sense - no! But these are my personal troubles, especially since everyone's operating system may be different. Instructions i always read, but now I ran into a problem when flashing my l-book book - well, I did everything according to the instructions - I connected it, pressed it - not a fig. Until the ustatka changed one stage and everything was immediately sewn.
In this case, the person writes that they tried to connect to three different computers and none of them sees the book, you advise to change the cable and point the unidentified device to some file - the computer does not see it at all, and not something that does not recognize it.
Luca, I had a similar problem with my phone and book. I agree with Arkady_ru - try changing the cable (in the sense of buying a new one). If it doesn't work, try exchanging it again in the m-video for the same or another one with a surcharge - the rules of this store allow this, they solve all issues without a service center, so by the way I have a suspicion that you have a device out of repair. Well, in extreme cases, you will return the money - also no problem.

[vatruska]

vatruska, this means we open the dispatcher of the us-in, find the unidentified us-in that appears and click the RMB on it; we choose to update the driver, we do not choose automatically; specify the path to the file with the * inf extension.As a device (and not as drives), it will be displayed in the Windows manager only if the button is pressed and held while connecting. For tablets, this is the volume button, for readers, or a ring, or flipping. Some support firmware from a memory card, even if this option is not officially regulated (but this is only possible from the recovery menu or the book can determine the presence of a firmware file on the card on its own and offer change).
In the instructions, there is confusion in the form of keeping the x button pressed when connecting the device, but you need y, that is, let's say + volume, but you need a minus. And vice versa. The same may apply to the direction of turning and the ring.

Thank you very much

I am reporting. I went to Mvideo in Volgograd, there were only 2 books, asked to connect to a computer, the book turned on, they found out at home that it had the latest firmware installed. Apparently someone passed, but the sellers did not warn about this.
When checking, it turned out that fb2.zir does not open. We asked again, read everything. I will still be testing in order to hand over an already working copy.
With the pockets, everything was easier, without these dances with tambourines, I turned it on, downloaded any format, use it and have fun.
I hope my aunt will not be buggy, she lives in the area, there will be no one nearby to help.
Many thanks to everyone who helped with advice

Girls, please read this link, we really need help Tamara Taia... a person is in trouble, the only hope is for us.

People, help! My friend bought a book of Sony 600 (second-hand), and since she is temporarily without the Internet,
then she asked me to pump up books. I faced such a problem - in all uploaded books instead of letters? (Question marks). Pictures are displayed correctly. Uploaded to epub. Maybe someone came across this? The owner of the book writes that there is something wrong with the file, but not all the books that I tried to read. There was already one book in the book - it looks ok

Click the OPTION button, select a font and replace the original one with another. It may well be that this will need to be done more than once.

Not working yet. I noticed there was a phrase in English in the text, and so it looks normal - written in letters

I would have flashed a Russified firmware for full Cyrillic support.
Russified firmware:
1)

User manual in Russian: 🔗

Comrades, how do you disinfect your books? Basically, I wipe everything with alcohol, but I don't dare to wipe the book (especially the screen I don't want to touch with alcohol).

I wipe with computer damp wipes. And the screen. Fine.

Microfiber cloth for cleaning windows. I just wet it with water and squeeze it well. So I wipe all the equipment with a laptop, a book, a phone, including a home TV.

I have a book in the cover. Therefore, contact only with the screen, I wipe it with a special. a cloth with a special tool for monitors.
And in my opinion, the screen cannot be wiped with alcohol.

Microfiber cloth for cleaning windows

And so did I. Just moisten it with glass cleaner. "Fingers" and so on are well rubbed off

[PocketBook 624]

Girls, does anyone enjoy PocketBook 624? How is she?

If my memory serves me, they took this to my son. Satisfied. I'll be at home on Tuesday, I'll clarify.

Tanya, like this:

🔗

I choose between her and the 614th model

🔗

[Omela]

Omela. Better with sensor. I looked at the characteristics, it differs from my 626 only by the backlight. I like the sensor more

[Ludmila]

Ludmila, do you use the backlight? The 626 has an even more powerful battery.

I have 623 - how I adore her

[Omela]

Omela, I don't read at all without backlighting. The battery is enough for a couple of books of 700-800 pages.
And what a light and comfortable after 903. Backlight for 1/4 day and even less at night.
If possible, take with backlight.

[Ludmila]

Ludmila, i.e.I understand correctly that the backlight is enough to read at night ??? Thank you, we will take it!

[Omela]

Omela, I have a Pocket book 701 with backlight. In winter I go by bus to Tula, after 16-00 it is already dark, we arrive in Tula at 20-00, in pitch darkness. Naturally, there is no light in the cabin. The backlight of the book is enough to read comfortably.

The backlight of the book is enough to read comfortably.

Galya. Thank you! This is what I wanted to know. I once bought a special flashlight. but, as it turned out, it is very inconvenient to use it.

I really wanted to buy myself an ordinary reading room, but at the beginning of the year I was presented with a small tablet, the size of a reading room. I am very, very happy with my tablet, I upload books, it is very convenient to read, if necessary, I’ll go to the Internet, I’ll go through the forum, check my mail, I downloaded music, I have different information. Somehow more interesting than just a reader. I’m glad that I didn’t rush to buy a regular reader. Very good illumination of the screen, can be adjusted at will, there are a lot of advantages. And relatively inexpensive.

I support. The backlight is needed. I often use it at a minimum even during the day.

[Taia]

I was presented with a small tablet, the size of a reading room.

oooh .. I did not consider the tablet at all. Taiabut your eyes don't get tired? What is yours?

Mine also agitates me on the tablet, like - there are more opportunities. Well, I don’t know, there are computers in the house, a laptop too, I don’t need an Internet on the beach and in buses ... and I don’t need to go anywhere))) What should I do? Tamara, give details

I don't need an Internet on the beach

I would even say prohibited !!!!

What to do? T

So I started thinking. Somehow I lean more towards the book.

My squeals that for the same price you can buy a more functional thing, although he himself did not look closely at the price tag. In our shops there are no books at all, I want to hold in my hands before buying, compare

Girls, readers have a screen - electronic ink, it does not glare and the eyes get tired of it, if it is, then as with ordinary reading from a sheet. In all tablets, the screen is like on a computer, we may not visually determine the frequency of blinking, but our brains will notice, fatigue increases significantly.
For me, it's better to go to the Internet from a computer, and long-term reading from a pocket. And the tablets weigh more.
The choice is yours

Mine, too, was at first for a tablet, and now there are two reading rooms in the house.

Girls, but now it became difficult for me to read paper books, after three years of using electronic.
And my daughter has a tablet and an e-book, so she still reads from a book. And the tablet is for other entertainment.

I have Asme's tablet, I have not seen this on sale in Russia. They advertise a similar one on TV at a price of 2 600 rubles.
The tablet is thin, small size, 7 inches, 19 * 11cm, convenient to carry in a regular purse. I have eye problems - but when reading from a tablet, there are no side vision problems. There are a lot of adjustments in the tablet for adjusting when reading, not like in a regular computer, everything can be adjusted to suit your vision, under the lighting. At home I also have a stationary computer, but it turned out that wi-fi from a tablet very often helps out.

Dachshund, well, let my Pretzel come back from the watch. Thank you girls!

Here I fully support the opinion of your spouse. Moreover, I already use and confirm myself in this.

For me, it's better to go to the Internet from a computer, and long-term reading from a pocket. And the tablets weigh more.
The choice is yours

So there are different tablets, there are large, and there are both light and small. I agree, from a stationary computer. it is more convenient to use the Internet, but in some cases a small tablet is simply not replaceable.
Or think differently, a reader with an additional function - wi-fi.

Girls. I have experience reading from a tablet and an e-book.The tablet on android is the cheapest, they took it for dad when he fell ill. Also, my sister and I thought that it would be interesting for him not only to read, but also to watch a movie, to go to the forum. A separate song about a cheap tablet is tough. If you yourself do not know how to reflash and all that, then it is better not to take it. He sits down very quickly. If you just read, then 4 hours and that's it, sat down. It takes a long time to charge, of course, you need to look at the characteristics when buying. But you can read by plugging into an outlet, not correctly, but if you really want to, you can. Girls, I emphasize, I am writing about the tablet on the android.
We installed a reader, everything looks pretty decent, like an open book, the leaves are a little beige, so that the eyes are pleasant. Any font is put, line spacing - any. A convenient option when you can make white letters on a black background. When dad was in the hospital, you know, pain, insomnia, he read at night in this mode without light, so as not to disturb anyone. But, for a long time, an hour or more, reading is not pleasant. The eyes feel bad, the letters seem to blur, blink. And I just want to stop reading. These are my personal feelings. Dad somehow adapted, but he didn't have the strength to do something for a long time.
I bought myself an e-book in May. This is heaven and earth. Deliberately bought only with buttons, no sensor. I didn't really like the sensor on the tablet either. It gets dirty even if the hands are clean. I listened to our Anechka Qween and bought it backlit. I am very, very happy. Yes, you can't do anything on it, just read and there are some toys (I have not looked at them yet and will hardly look). When reading 2-3 hours a day with a backlight, even during the day I often turn it on, charging is enough for a week. The term is approximate, because I don't read every day and I spend different time reading. Eyes don't get tired. Do not get tired at all. And if you consider that I set the font to a comfortable, large, line spacing - one and a half, then it is much more convenient for me to read it than a regular book and my eyes get tired less than with a regular book. It is not comparable with a tablet at all. Of the shortcomings, it is almost impossible to read the scanned text. Very, very shallow. The book does not provide an opportunity to enlarge such a text.
Conclusion. The tablet is convenient if you are often away from home and need all the functions of a computer, including reading books. But not on a permanent basis to use it as a reader. And the charge holds badly, and the eyes get tired.
The book is convenient for reading and only for reading, therefore it is necessary to reasonably approach the choice and set of additional functions in it. Are they needed, and the price rises from their abundance.

[Chamomile1]

We nevertheless decided to take a second reading room. I have an Internet on my phone. Plus a computer, laptop and netbook.

Chamomile1, Olya. What kind of reading room do you have?

Chamomile1, I support you 100%. At home there are also tablets and a desktop computer and a lumiya 1520 phone, but I only read from an ebook. I read a lot and for a long time. Now my daughter has started reading (before that she did not take books in her hands), so she also reads only from a book. She said that it is more convenient and my eyes do not water. She had to buy a separate one. Something like this.

[Omela]

Omela, from Olya Digma R60G, I bought one for my aunt. If you find it for 1.5-2 thousand, then it's very good.
After the induction and sensor, it is very unusual and time consuming to use links, while the test is tortured. Significantly fewer fonts, there is no function after turning off to return to the open page, only to the main page. The screen itself does not differ from the pocket.
3 pages ago, this book was discussed.
